Novella has been a favourite for some time, and their new single is one of my favourite songs from their new album “Land”, “Sentences”. It sounds like it could have been a song by Lush from their early days, and […]

Norwegian five-piece Dråpe has been one of my favourites for some time now. They made some magnificent songs for their debut album, and today their second album “Relax/Relapse” arrived on Bandcamp. The official release is tomorrow, 9th October. I’m listening […]
